No Half Measures...

What happened to May!... It's June and we are half way though the year and things are really full-on... Absolutely!

It has been an extraordinary month... inspirational, motivating and innovating. It was a pleasure meeting like-minded people again at the Holistic Professional Network event organised by Beverley Holt. I was delighted to once again host the evening and talk about why I believe keeping your identity is so important.

It is with very great pleasure that I can announce my recent appointment as an Ambassador for the UK charity Odysseus Foundation, to raise awareness of the necessity to screen women in the third and developing world for breast and cervical cancer. Special thanks to Justen Schafer the founder, for the fantastic work he is doing.

The Amber Club has been invited to participate in the 60th Anniversary of the Hippodrome in Cagnes sur Mer. This is a programme that includes a display of vintage cars, fashion show, musical entertainment, along with our own programme starting with cocktails. Throughout the evening you can enjoy the racing, listen to our speakers, have dinner together and before going home with a beautiful goody bag, the finale will be a spectacular firework display. Places are limited and booking early is recommended.

Dani Carew is author of Redefining Amber and together with me Anna Fill, we are so looking forward to welcoming you on what will be a wonderful day!
